The Sept. 13-15 event will feature more than 2,500 street rods, muscle cars,
specialty cars, custom cars and trucks, according to
the NSRA, making it the largest such event in the region. Vehicles must be at least 30 years old, but many have been retrofitted with modern amenities
like air conditioning and GPS.

This will be the 27th year the event has taken
place in Kalamazoo. It will run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday
and Saturday and from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday. The award-winning street rods will be displayed
in a "Circle of Winners" on Sunday.

Aside from the thousands of vehicles on display, there will be a swap meet
where people can purchase vintage parts and entire
vehicles, as well as live entertainment and other activities throughout the
weekend. Anyone more interested in arts and crafts than classic cars
can stop by the "Women's World" section that will feature merchandise from local
artisans.

Tickets will only be available at the fairgrounds during the
event. The cost is $14 for adults, with discounts for senior citizens, military personnel, NSRA members and United Parcel Service employees. Admission for children ages 6-12 will be $5, with younger children admitted for free.
